Many of us have resolved to read more books, only to find those good intentions gathering dust on a bookshelf. I can certainly relate! After years of letting books pile up unread, I’ve finally rediscovered the joy of getting lost in a good book.
With more time on my hands and a desire to stay mentally stimulated, I’ve replaced screen time with reading. Unlike the often unreliable and sometimes biased content we find online, books offer a curated and in-depth exploration of various topics. Finding credible authors with expertise in your area of interest can be a rewarding and affordable way to learn and grow.
